In times of old, people wrote COBOL and BASIC.

They make CrossOver, which is a productized version of Wine that lets you run Windows software on MacOS. They also work closely with Valve, who have just announced Steam Frame (a device that runs SteamOS on ARM).

I bought the Geekom Air12 Lite, and the build quality has impressed me.

God is all-powerful, eternal, exists outside of space and time, and created us for a purpose - but he's too busy to be bothered by our prayers?

The glee I see in many people over this possibility is quite chilling.

Thank you! Because of this, "The Making of Prince of Persia: Journals 1985–1993" by Jordan Mechner is on its way to my house.

Thank you for the recs, Masters of Doom really lit a fire inside of me as a young programmer. I'd also recommend "Soul of a New Machine" by Tracy Kidder.

You definitely will not regret that purchase. It's a very enjoyable read.

We gave up X11 for the unfulfilled promise of something greater. A tech tale as old as time.

Is Wayland really that bad though? I switched from Awesome to Hyprland, and the gaming support (VRR, HDR), among other things is much more straightforward. For normal desktop usage, I haven't seen much of a difference. Certainly not a negative one.

Wayland completely punted on the remote display capabilities of X11. There has been no effort to replicate this functionality. If you switch to Wayland, you can no longer run GUI apps through SSH.

I'm sure they meant "you". שלום־עליכם

He shares the title of "SBC Guy" with ExplainingComputers. Any time a new single-board computer comes out, especially a Raspberry Pi, they make videos with benchmarks etc. etc.

I took too long to write my comment, you beat me to the punch. I didn't plagiarise your comment, but I do largely agree!

If it goes down you can always upgrade to a Raspberry Pi 3B+.
